Free trade is really free when those who build the best for the best price sell the most. We in the US, for instance with autos imosed trade restrictions in the early 80's at the same time we were building piles of junk with people who getting paid 27.00 hour plus exorbatant benifits for the consumer, consequently the Japanese easily came into this country and built actual quality autos with non-union labor and have done nothing but continue to kick our collective butts. Where are those of us designing gizillion mile per gallon cars here?
Where are those of us designing non-military (and maybe even that is becoming questionable)
consumer goods that are so overwhelmingly better than those coming in from overseas that people will buy them for the prices that are incurred here?
